Surprise. In prep for the Dresden Dolls' “Yes, Virgina…(Tailor’s Version)” tour, I’m coming early for three intimate solo piano shows. I have new songs. And I have many stories to tell. ON SALE NOW: 🇮🇹PADUA, 🇸🇪STOCKHOLM, and 🇩🇪HAMBURG. Art: @nikimcqueen.bsky.social. All tickets: amandapalmer.net

A concert poster featuring Amanda's name, tour dates in Sweden, Italy and Germany, and a painting of a woman lying down, presumably dead, but looking peaceful. Her breasts are bared and her heart is ripped open, as in a Grey's Anatomy textbook. From her heart, three gorgeous lotus flowers are sprouting.

This is a rapidly made digital work that I couldn't not make. I found the base image in the Wellcome Collection's massive library on the day I heard about the rape academy website. I don't think I need say any more, except that I have been feeling sick ever since that day Untitled 2026 Digital #art

You are grieving the death of a dream and the illusion of freedom. Your grief and anger anger are valid and justified. And neccesary. Do not avoid your feelings. Make a compass of them. #america #ice #freedom

I think the life of an artist is a constant journey between being deeply lonely and profoundly connected. #art #artism #latenightthoughts

The cost of art, is life. The price of art, is a rich man's game. The true value of art, can only be measured by the soul. #art #latenightthoughts

Reactions to the Kirk shooting are, if nothing else, a stark revelation of the zeitgeist of conservative America. Why beat your breast and weep for this individual and ignore the ongoing massacre of children in US schools, in Gaza, in the Ukraine? #kirk #usa #texas

The only way to stop this political violence is to stop the source of it, which is the movement led by Trump and Kirk and other virulent white supremacists. Don’t decry the violence while refusing to treat the cause of it. This is not an advocation of violence.

On the 1st day of spring every year until 2021, I would go into my garden and bring in some Jasmine, put it by my bedside and deeply inhale the heady scent. I miss the scent of Jasmine as though it were a dearly departed friend. Of all the things Covid took, I hate it the most for that. #artonpaper

I never watch reality TV because it celebrates a culture of people being mean to each other. Isn't life hard enough? The world is on fire, and the sky is falling, and you're shaming someone for being fat? How is that useful for the fundamental good of our species? Art: Mater Vulnus #artonpaper

REQUIEM For K and L. Mixed media, 39 x 57cm This artwork was made for a friend from days gone by, who is now a friend from now, and a collector of some of the best and most meaningful pieces I have made. It is in memory of her soulmate, whom she lost far too young. #traditionalart #painting #art

THE MAGICIAN'S ASSISTANT 2025 Who holds the power? He wears the costume of control. She is keeper of wisdom and light. He performs the role; she embodies the magic. Who cast the spell, and who obeys it? Perhaps the illusion is ours. #art #magic #magician #FeministArt #visualart #traditionalart
